SPIRITUAL WARFARE 

Spiritual Warfare is something that every believer is engaged in, whether they know it or like it.  God gives us weaponry for the battle and we need to be aware of them.

"We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ." - 2 Cor 10: 3-5, NLT

Satan is very real; as real as God.  But, he is a defeated foe who only objective is to blind people to the love of Jesus, keep hurting people in bondage, and bother those who love the Lord.

"Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour." - 1 Peter 5:8, NLT

There is a lot of outer-fringe garbage out there that leads you to believe there is a demon under every rock, Satan caused the crack in your windshield, and every person with a disorder needs to be exorcised.  These books and resources on spiritual warfare are solid and Biblically balanced.

When the Enemy Strikes: The Keys to Winning Your Spiritual Battles
by Charles Stanley

Satan is a very powerful adversary. However, God does not leave us to defend ourselves, and He wants us to understand His supernatural and unlimited ability to help us. Dr. Stanley will show readers how to achieve victory by:

Identifying the enemy, dressing in the full armor of God and standing firm, releasing God's energy, divine power, and protection through prayer, sensing the forewarnings of Satan's attacks on finances, family, relationships, or health.

Spiritual warfare is fought every day on the battlefield of your mind. The Adversary knows that if he can direct your thinking, it's only a matter of time before you're vulnerable to the allure of sin. Dr. Stanley teaches that to stand against Satan's attacks, you must meditate upon biblical principles and arm yourself with the sword of the spirit-God's Word.
